NVIDIA GeForce 7800GT has been out in the market for quite sometime already. However, all the cards we are seeing today are more or less the same NVIDIA reference card design. Today we'll take a first look at a very interesting 7800GT card from XFX. This is probably one of the most colorful and fanciful card we have tested till now. Completed with a pretty lighted emblem of the XFX logo on the support bar, this card would certainly appeal to the case modding crowd, or even just anyone who has a transparent side panel! What's more, even the DVI ports on the card are UV reactive yellow colored. Seems like XFX is all out to make this card stand out from the rest. Not to mention, this card comes at a higher factory clock speed of 450MHz for core and 1050MHz for memory.

Here are some photos we took on XFX GeForce 7800GT Special Edition:

This XFX card is one of the first card to come without the plain green PCB. Together with a sleek black and multicolored XFX logo on the heatsink, this card sure looks good!

A closer look at the cooler on this card. Although it spots a similar design as compared to the default reference cooler, the fan on this card comes in a neon green color. Since it is neon green, it is actually UV reactive as well.

^ shame I don't have transparent windows

One of the key differences between this and the reference design is the heatsink. While the reference card comes with aluminum heatsink, the heatsink from the XFX card is a copper one. This will ensure a lower operating temperature as copper is better in dissipating heat.

^ good for shuttle

This is how the back of the card looks like. Unlike the reference cards, this card comes in a blue PCB. The design of the PCB is still largely based on the reference design though.

XFX 7800GT comes with a solid aluminum support bar that would strengthen the card and prevent it from warping. While this had been a standard feature for most of XFX's higher end cards, it is still a rather important feature. It is especially important for those whom might swap out the original cooler and replace it for something heavier. This anti-warp bar would prevent the card from warping due to weight over a period of time.

^ 1 reason I love XFX

Right at the center of the anti warp bar, there is a cool XFX emblem. This emblem would actually light up when powered up due to 3 yellow LED at the back of the emblem.

^ that is just too 1337

A look at the rear I/O connectors for this XFX card. The connector plate itself is black in color while the 2 DVI connectors are actually lime green. It certainly looks cool this way.

This card makes me drool :yumyum: :yumyum: :yumyum:

This is how the card looks like when powered on in our test bed. The fan and the XFX emblem emits a rather faint but cool yellow light.

This is a close up of the fan with the lights off.

This is how the XFX emblem on the anti-warp bar looks like when lighted up at night. It's a pretty cool sight and great for people wanting to show off their new XFX card. Great for case modders and LAN Party goers!

I might have to get the Shuttle Clear cover

Now that is one SICK card, I can't freaking wait
